The Board of Directors and the entire Foundation community can hold our heads high for the organization’s extraordinary history. During this time, Canada and the world have changed, academia has evolved, and the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation is poised to go in a bold new direction, to undergo renewal, and to innovate on its mission to better prepare the next generation of Scholars to succeed and lead in the world today. As the Foundation turns to the next five years, several of the strategies and activities outlined below have already begun in earnest. Notably, 2019 marked the beginning of a new programming model for Scholars, Fellows and Mentors as well as a renewed model for the Foundation to engage the wider public. While putting diversity front and centre, we are bringing the Foundation toward new horizons, with the introduction of the Institutes of Engaged Leadership built around a scientific theme important to Canadians and the world. Our team is proud to share the following Strategic Plan 2019-2024, ensuring a bright and stimulating future focused on learning, knowledge-sharing and community-building.

The Foundation is committed to diversity in many forms, including gender, race, disability, language, socioeconomic background, Indigenous knowledge and region of origin as well as diversity of perspectives. Values Community The Foundation’s community is made of leaders who explore, ask difficult questions, and discover new horizons. The Foundation’s new programming will empower participants to become Engaged Leaders, equipping Scholars with the tools to be courageous and creative leaders in their institutions and communities and to inspire innovative approaches as they blaze new trails in the social sciences and humanities. Accountability All organizations require a robust culture of accountability, particularly during a time of change and innovation. Change is disruptive by nature, and rallying staff, governors, community members and partners around innovation and an agenda of renewal requires trust. Creating that trust requires rigorous accountability and a respectful environment. For the Foundation, accountability means recognizing responsibility, taking risks and rewarding excellence. Impact The Foundation’s vision is to empower Scholars to have meaningful impact in the world. To deliver on this promise, the Foundation has long invested in innovative researchers who experiment and adapt in the fast- changing landscape and demonstrate an ability to work with those with a variety of perspectives and from different walks of life. 3 Great public educators and leaders begin here! 2019 cohort The Foundation is an international model for leadership training among academics.

    COMMUNIQUÉ Volume 27, Issue 30 July 28, 2020 WE Scandal Highlights the PM’s Ethical Incoherence Rod Taylor Leader, CHP Canada There are limits to public credulity and tolerance for blatantly reckless behaviour with public funds. The failed attempt by Prime Minister Trudeau to funnel $43.5 million of taxpayer money to his friends at the WE Charity Foundation fell outside those limits. The optics were bad. The amounts were staggering. The lies uttered to cover it up were appalling. This was not simply a Prime Minister’s error in judgment. This was a campaign to divert public funds into behind-the- scenes partisan grooming. The idea of passing nearly a billion dollars ($912 million, to be exact) into the hands of a charity connected with the Liberal brand raises questions on its face. Investigators have also discovered that the since- aborted contract to administer $912 million was not even made directly with WE Charity but with the WE Charity Foundation, a separate (sort of) charity that has only been registered for just over a year. It has no significant assets and no proven track record; it appears the reason for using a separate charity was to minimize liability risk for We Charity.1 The fact that the WE Charity Foundation would have pocketed about $43.5 million for distributing the rest of the money makes one blink hard, especially when Canada already has an army of civil servants who have proven themselves quite capable of handing out taxpayers’ money. Side-stories, new angles and “footnotes-of-interest” seem to be sprouting up all along the trail.
